Governance is not an straight forward thing.
You have to please many, and achieve the end point.
I could never be a Governor or a manager.
I would be all in fisticuffs with the first SOB that challenged me. LoL
“Governance is not an straight forward thing.”
It is completely straight forward if one has principles. If one lacks principles while holding the power to govern, then I agree. It’s not a straight forward thing.
When one is convinced they must be flexible, then one must make concessions totally disregarding his/her principles. When this occurs, we have cognitive dissonance. What follows is a breakdown of principle. Then comes denial of service.
